The identity of the spider shown on this page is uncertain. It is labelled here as a possible Artoria species because its appearance closely resembles that of Artoria mckayi except for the white patch at the rear of the abdomen. This may just be a characteristic of the male of A. mckayi or may indicate that it is a closely related species.

Spider(s) with a very similar appearance: Several Australian lycosids, especially other Artoria species.
